Properly preparing a strategic plan to pump mine tailings

It’s crucial to adequately size tailings pumping systems to ensure ore production plants run smoothly and that operational goals are met. The natural progression of tailings storage facilities inevitably leads to an increase in pipeline length or evacuation elevation, or both, over the years. Production slowdowns can be avoided by planning tailings pumping requirements and increasing system capacity in a timely manner, if required.

Managing hectic projects with agility and efficiency

Have you ever been assigned to a project that seems simple at first, but then turns out to be very challenging technically, and the schedule and budget kept changing constantly? While useful, the advent of digital technologies has increased options and can sometimes delay key decisions and change the original project direction. Let’s put it this way: You thought you were going to be driving on a perfectly straight paved road through the fields, but instead, you end up on a winding gravel road through the woods! The vehicle you initially selected, the route duration and the estimated budget may no longer be suitable.

Implementing a production management and monitoring system: the importance of preliminary studies

They say you can only improve what you measure. For companies that don’t have information systems that can collect, process, analyze and visualize production data, it’s difficult to justify capital expenditures (CAPEX), or even kick start continuous improvement projects, without a plan for a return on the investment. When realizing the potential behind exploiting production data, some organizations decide to implement information systems that allow them to measure key indicators for their production areas. However, businesses often fall into the trap of being too quick with platform integrations, because they think they’ll reduce the time to value. This short blog article explains the importance of preliminary studies, their essential components and their benefits.

Ten potential pitfalls to avoid when designing a power plant at altitude

Mining companies are usually located in remote areas and at high altitude at occasions, where tying onto the electrical grid is either economically unviable or logistically impractical. As a result, these companies face the challenge of reliable, efficient and environmentally responsible onsite power generation to power their site operations.
